Chapter 70: Capture the Flag
Returning to the Huotou Army again, Luo Bai's mind was no longer on Qiu Qiu.
The city of abundance, the city that is related to the fate of the empire, is finally about to usher in a decisive battle.
This morning, Luo Bai seemed to have forgotten his agreement with Sheng Shige and did not go to contact them.
He lay down on the bed, and like Mu Yichu, he quickly fell asleep.
Tu Shuangdao and the others came back and began to rest.
But before they could sleep, a call came from outside the tent: "Is this the predecessor of the Huotou Army?" ”
Everyone immediately woke up, Tu Shuangdao looked out the door, and then replied, "Is there something wrong?" ”
Training has already started at this time, and it stands to reason that there shouldn't be any talent, so how can anyone be here?
The person outside the house smiled: "Senior, let's cook." ”
This answer surprised them, and Tu Shuangdao looked at Luo Bai, gave him a look, and motioned for him to go out and have a look.
Luo Bai straightened his clothes and walked out of the tent.
There were more than a dozen people standing outside the house, led by a young man with clear eyebrows.
The young man looked polite, dressed in a green shirt, and a jade pendant hanging from his waist, no matter how he looked at it, he didn't look like a person in the army.
But Luo Bai's woodpipes only flashed away on him, and they gathered on the dozen or so carriages behind them. There were sheep, cows, and wolves on the carriage!
Isn't that what they're going to cook?
How many people is this Nima going to do?
"These are all for cooking? How many of you eat? ”
The three teenagers were stunned for a moment, and asked rhetorically: "Isn't it necessary to prepare two ingredients for cooking alone?" ”
And this kind of regulation?
Just as he was about to speak, Tu Shuangdao had already walked out: "What are you going to do?" ”
Is this a good deal?
Luo Bai looked at Tu Shuangdao from the side and found that this guy had a strong physique and was a little fat. Could it be that you often eat meat like this?
The boy said, "Barbecue!" ”
Tu Shuangdao smiled, in the pasture, it is indeed best to eat barbecue.
"Got it. When will it be done? ”
"Is it okay at dinner? Of course, we know that the seniors also have to cook. But these are what we can eat for the soldiers of the Benlei Battalion, and we can make them together. ”
Luo Bai originally felt bored, but when he heard this, he suddenly came to his senses.
Ben Thunder Battalion?
How could they want to cook at this time?
"Yes. And ......"
Tu Shuangdao agreed, and he didn't even ask Mu Yichu, it seems that he didn't do this kind of thing.
"Look at how sensible you are, your ingredients, return you a cart."
This time, they had already driven eighteen carts of cattle and sheep, half of which was nine carts. If you return one car, it will be ten cars.
A cart of meat is about 500 catties, and ten carts are 5,000 catties.
In this way, everyone should be able to eat a small pound of meat.
The young man calculated slightly in his heart, took out a money bag from his bosom, and offered it with both hands.
"Senior, we will have to fight against the champion camp in the near future. The commander wanted to let everyone have a good meal before the confrontation, so he bought some beef and mutton from outside. But time is in a hurry, and I only bought so much. ”
Tu Shuangdao didn't wait for him to finish, and interrupted him: "Just say what you want me to do." ”
"Can we see if we can sell us the remaining eight cars, and we can buy them for ten gold per car, can we?"
Only then did Tu Shuangdao understand what he meant.
He took the money bag from the young man's hand, threw it away, and said with a smile: "There is no eighty gold!" ”
The young man took the money bag and showed a little to Tu Shuangdao: "It's eighty gold!" ”
Tu Shuangdao's eyes lit up, put away the money bag, and put it into his arms.
"Leave a cart behind!"
This is a gesture that must be made, after all, the rules cannot be broken, and this extra meal must be taken away from the extra ingredients!
"Come and get it at dinner."
Then, without waiting for the boy to reply, he turned around and prepared to walk in.
Looking at this posture, the boy also knew that there was no way to talk about it anymore. Fortunately, the result was better than expected, and they did not force it, so they were ready to agree to leave.
Ke Luobai grabbed Tu Shuangdao and said, "Lord Tu, it's not good for you to be like this." Doing business requires a back and forth, since people are so sincere, why do we have to express it? ”
Tu Shuangdao's eyes were slightly cold: "The rules can't be broken." I've given them the best flexibility within their authority, and if the result isn't acceptable, they can leave. ”
Seeing that Tu Shuangdao seemed to be angry, the young man immediately said, "The adults have misunderstood, we are very satisfied." ”
Luo Bai looked at these three guys who were so unconfident, and was speechless for a while.
"Alright then, I'll send you there in the evening. But can you eat all of it? ”
The boy smiled, "I'm afraid these are not enough. ”
After speaking, he left with his fists clenched.
Eighteen carts of beef and mutton are not enough, how many people do you need?
As he was thinking, the Twin Knives came out of the tent again, and the others followed.
All had smiles on their faces, clearly delighted.
Luo Bai watched them carry things, and he was a little overwhelmed.
The army is the existence of the defense of the country, and if even this place can be done and people are still enthusiastic about this, then this kind of army may lose its original intention and have no combat effectiveness.
Can such an army still shoulder the heavy responsibility of defending the country?
Just when Luo Bai was thinking about it, Mu Yichu called: "Why is the kid stunned? Come and move something! ”
Luo Bai reluctantly went to work.
On this day, except for cooking, at other times, Mu Yichu and others were making barbecue on the fire.
In the evening, Luo Bai clearly told Mu Yichu that I won't do the dinner at night, you can go by yourself!
Who knew that Mu Yichu smiled and said, "I won't cook tonight!" ”
Before the meal, the boy in the morning arrived on time.
"My lord, am I not late?"
Mu Yichu nodded, pointed to the seventeen cars and said, "The things are there, you can take them away." Now that the weather is cold, when you eat, warm it up. ”
The boy thanked: "We are picnics and have bonfires. ”
, He didn't say much more, and pointed to the place again.
Then the young man led the people to the carriage.
When they left, Mu Yichu said: "Let's go, after a busy day, we should also rest." ”
Then the crowd walked in.
In the tent, a roasted sheep is placed in the middle, and there are some dishes and wine and meat around it.
Everyone sat down, only to find that Luo Bai was not there.
"Where did this kid go?"
Mu Yichu looked outside the tent and said quietly: "It should be going to the bonfire party of the Benlei Camp, right?" ”
Luo Bai did go, and he had a good time talking to the young man.
That young man, that is, Guo Shouzhi, had already eaten with Luo Bai.
"Brother Luo, I've actually seen you."
Luo Bai swallowed the mutton and said unexpectedly: "Have you seen me?" Where is it? Impossible, right? ”
Guo Shouzhi said with a smile: "On the day you came, you and Brother Huo were all called to the front by the general......
He didn't continue, after all, it was a little embarrassing for Luo Bai at that time, and he could just click on it.
"That was the first time I met Brother Luo. As for the second time, it was the one when Brother Luo admitted that he was sick. To be honest, I admired Brother Luo very much that time. Military generals attach great importance to military exploits, after all, this is the only way to be promoted. Brother Keluo said don't want it, it's really admirable! ”
Luo Bai smiled bitterly, if it weren't for Huo Zong, but also to verify his relationship with the Luo family, he wouldn't have done this!
But now it's too late to say anything, he can only smile bitterly: "False praise, false praise......"
The two didn't dwell on this matter for too long, so they talked about it now.
"Brother Guo, I've been staying in the Huotou Army, and I don't know what's going on outside. What are you going to do here? ”
Guo Ponu didn't doubt it, and replied: "You know the Benlei Camp and the Champion Camp, right? ”
Luo Bai nodded.
"This is it. We're holding our breath right now, waiting to clean up those guys! ”
This surprised Luo Bai: "Why? ”
